Playtesters for Text Adventure

#1 Post by catventure » Sat May 14, 2011 11:32 am

Hi,

Frank Fridd, author of 1996 Spectrum game "Where is Zeus?" and other games such as "Colditz", "Smuggler" and "Great Grandfather's Gold" has written a beta-release of his new text adventure game "Finding True Love" and is requesting a few playtesters...
This game runs on WINDOWS and was created with the thinBasic Adventure Builder (TAB for PC)
You can download the game here:
http://tab.thinbasic.com/TESTtruelove.zip
You do not need TAB in order to run the adventure.

Regards,
catventure.
TAB is an offline, downloadable, parser-based retro text adventure/interactive creator for Windows XP and above.
It is similar to popular 80's adventure creators like QUILL, PAW, STAC or GAC.

Hi Guys,

Frank is still seeking 1 or 2 playtesters for his game "Finding True Love". I'm also testing when I have time.
If you would like to join in and help with testing please feel free.
I'm sure Frank will be only too happy to receive ANY feedback or reports regarding any aspect of the game... His contact email is in the readme.txt contained in the game folder.

Thanks,

As a result of further testing this file was recently updated with some coding corrections etc. and is available to download from the same link.

Thanks to those who checked this game out!
It is now available to be downloaded through the TAB Online Updater (on the TAB Editor Main Menu dialog)
An expanded version with music and sfx will be released shortly and will be obtainable from the TAB home page in due course:
